Error reporting to Discord.

A simple post-to-Discord reporter for Tower error handler that sends formatted error messages to a Discord channel via webhooks.

The package can be installed by adding tower_discord to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [
    {:tower_discord, "~> 0.1.0"}
  ]
end

Register the reporter with Tower:

# config/config.exs

config :tower, :reporters, [
  # along with any other possible reporters
  TowerDiscord
]

Add the Discord-specific configurations:

# config/runtime.exs

config :tower_discord,
  webhook_url: System.get_env("TOWER_DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL"),
  level: :error # Optional, defaults to :error

1. In your Discord server, go to Server Settings -> Integrations
2. Click on "Create Webhook"
3. Choose the channel where you want the error reports to appear
4. Copy the Webhook URL and use it in your configuration

The reporter will format error messages with:

• Error type and source location
• Exception details
• Stacktrace information
• Hashtags for easy filtering (#tower_report #tower_type_[kind])
